Encounter for examination for admission to educational institution

This code does not map to an HCC category in any model (V28, V24, ESRD, RxHCC).

What This Code Means

A medical visit where a doctor examines a person to provide clearance or documentation needed for enrollment in a school, college, or other educational program.

Coding Tips

  • Use this code only when the encounter is specifically for educational institution admission examination, not for routine school physicals without admission purpose
  • This is a Z code (encounter for reasons other than illness), so it should be the primary diagnosis code
